The Development Of Discourse Analysis

Authors : Kouti Malika .

Abstract

Abstract Many researchers have been interested in analysing discourse. Discourse analysis has been a result of a number of research works from different perspectives. It has attracted attention from different disciplines since the late 1960s (Celce-Murcia & Olshtain, 2000). To this end, the aim and the focus of this paper is to shed some light on the development of discourse analysis through the contributions of various approaches, specifically the works of Halliday, Crystal and Davy, Halliday and Hasan, Widdowson, Coulthard, Sinclair and Coulthard, de Beaugrande and Dressler and others.
